Scottsdale Comedy Spot presents Manny Maldonado

Manny Maldonado was born in Modesto California, and raised in the small town of Ceres Ca.He worked odd jobs including as a dispatch supervisor for a medical supply company. As a dare from his friends he tried stand up comedy. The rest was history! He had no intentions on becoming a stand up comedian. “I had hopes and dreams” I’m a firm believer that stand up comedy picked me!

The ability to make people laugh is such a thrill. Manny’s comedic style is best described as high energy, and no holding back. His unique ability to crossover to a mainstream audience is making him one of the hottest rising working comics today.

In 2010 along with Emmy Award Winning Actor Bryan Cranston he performed for former New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson.Manny performs at clubs, colleges, comedy clubs, theaters, and military overseas as well.
